Aug 14 - New Round Of Improvements For The Upper Rock

In line with the Government’s ongoing programme to improve the Upper Rock, the Gibraltar Nature Reserve Management Team has recently completed a number of projects in different areas of the Upper Rock such as the Governor’s Lookout, O’Hara’s Battery and Jew’s Gate.

The works carried out include the renovation of a dilapidated building that will now be used by the Gibraltar Astronomical Society, upgrading facilities for the recently deployed Environmental Security Guards in the Upper Rock and carrying out much needed maintenance works for the Gibraltar Scouts Association’s training site.

During the next few weeks, the team will continue to carry out general maintenance works in the Upper Rock, under the supervision of the Department of the Environment and Climate Change, with particular emphasis on upgrading picnic areas, restoring roadside balustrades and water tanks, clearing undergrowth and improving key paths such as the Mediterranean Steps. These measures all form part of the wider Nature Reserve Management Plan which is undergoing a consultation process and nearing completion.
